Went here for some tasty Thai food and it did not disappoint. Imm Thai is that special brand of restaurant that Berkeley excels at: stuffed with noisy conversation, effortlessly cool atmosphere, and dishes so mouthwatering it's absolutely worth circling University Ave and the surrounding streets for ever-elusive parking spots.If you're looking for traditional Thai fare, you've got classic dishes like pad thai and pad see ewe. But if you're looking to dig into Thai cuisine beyond the basics, this is where the menu really shines. It's not expansive, but what dishes are on the menu are served with flavor and finesse.My friend and I got the duck noodle soup and the kao moo dang. Both were tasty, savory, and comforting, packed with the perfect amount of umami flavor. Service was impressively quick given the quality (though given it's a street food restaurant, not exactly surprising). We swept in at lunch hour on a Saturday without having to wait for a table, and left two hours later with a mango sticky rice to go. I'd have gotten another dish, but I was too full. Guess that gives me a perfect excuse to come back another time!

Our meal was unimpressive. We ordered the green curry, Tom Kha soup, and Moo Ping (grilled marinated pork). The green curry was the only dish I somewhat enjoyed--it had a thicker consistency than I expected, almost like a stir-fry rather than a broth. However, for something labeled as "two-star spicy," it lacked any real heat.The Tom Kha soup was a disappointment. Instead of a balanced, flavorful broth, it tasted like chicken breast floating in coconut water with an overwhelming hit of lime. The only thing I could taste was sourness.The Moo Ping was the most underwhelming of all. The pork was so unremarkable that it felt like the end pieces of day-old meat--neither appealing nor tasty. Where was the grilled part? The chili-lime sauce did nothing to enhance it. It felt sloppy.I don't understand the hype, aside from this being an affordable hangout spot for college students. Comparing this to real Thai food almost feels unfair.

I came in with great expectations since a lot of friends claim this is the best Thai spot they've ever had. So the bar was set pretty highFood:The pad see ew was nothing special but still tasted good. I like how the noodles were wider than usually and very chewy. Although some of the noodles weren't fully separated and clumped together, and the sauce was a bit lacking (could definitely be because they don't use msg).They gave a surprisingly tiny portion of duck for the duck over rice... it tasted great and was tender but would recommend ordering something else to get more value for ur $. The sauce was great though and the pickled jalepenos were a nice touch. Service: stellar service, despite being a busy time. Ambiance: small restaurant that gets pretty loud but great to stop by with friends. We were lucky and didn't have to wait for seating (came with one friend at around 12:30 on a Saturday) but the restaurant quickly filled up after that. By the time we left there were a few parties waiting. Overall, good Thai food- but I wouldn't necessarily say it's the best Thai food ever. Certainly a great place to try and will hope to try other dishes soon :)

Must try in Berkeley! This place is popular for a reason. The portions are very generous for the price, service is very fast, and the food is delicious. There were lots of college students dining here, so it can get pretty busy and loud during peak hours. I recommend joining the waitlist on yelp before you arrive!

Imm Thai is the perfect spot for high quality Thai food. I got the yellow curry with tofu and white rice and it was delicious! So much depth and flavor, and was quite filling. My partner got the noodles with shrimp, calamari, and egg. I can't recall the name but he loved it! On this day, it was raining pretty hard, so enjoying a delicious warm meal was just what I needed. I would come again!

Overall pretty great food - the prices are decent priced and the food flavors were nice. Ordered their Thai green curry, which flavor wise was pretty good but perhaps not packed with a ton of flavor. The Thai tea was tasty and not too sweet. The roti portions were small unfortunately. The ambiance is okay. Recommend putting your name in line when you get there.

Super busy on a Saturday evening. We arrived with about 14 people ahead of us and waited about 35 minutes to be seated. They are pretty fast getting people seated, orders taken and food delivered except they forgot about my beef salad after all of our food had been delivered I had to ask about my salads dish. I would expect it to come out first along with my chicken wings. Overall not bad but comparably priced to other Thai restaurants.

Came with my brother on a Friday evening around 9PM after moving him out for winter break. There was surprisingly still a 10 minute wait an hour before closing. We were seated towards the back of their rustic little restaurant right next to the pass, so we got a nice view of the finishing touches for each dish and the added benefit of our food being piping hot.We started with the roti with orange curry, which was flaky, chewy, and flavorful. I had the kana moo krob, which featured bite-size pieces of pork belly that somehow remained crunchy while absolutely drowning in a thin and almost too salty sauce alongside steam(ing) rice, Chinese broccoli, and more than enough garlic. My brother tried the yen ta foh, which featured an assortment of seafood in a spicy noodle soup. The broth was nicely light and spicy, with a nice crunch from the wonton chips on top. We shared a mango sticky rice for dessert, with warm coconut rice and mango that we both found a bit too hard for our liking. Still a solid Thai option in Berkeley that I wouldn't mind returning to in the future, and certainly one that was easier on the wallet for all of the items we got + a drink ($65 after tip).

Not so hidden gem! I never stopped by this place when I lived in the east bay and that's a shame. I had a great dining experience here recently. Join the waitlist if you can. It was surprisingly packed around 3pm. The service is friendly and warm. The food is sooo flavorful (I got the green curry). It came out quickly as well and was hot. Prices are very reasonable.Parking on University is notoriously tough. Meters only.

The best Thai place in the bay hands down, if you're new to Thai food then just order the chicken pad Thai and the Thai iced tea, thank me later
